Wall of Stone

Oh what do I say
When it's time to walk away
The tears start to lay
Now that I'm on the highway
Making it so very hard to see
Not wanting to set you free
Why did I still chose to flee
Carrying your love always with me
I see a shooting star
Wishing you wont let me get too far
As I still drive my car
The distance in my heart leaving a scar
Looking twards my phone
Wondering if i can make it on my own
Not really wanting to be left alone
Again I start to build a wall of stone
